"Jiu-Jitsu taught us to pay attention to view the world, not through our ego, and allows us to see where the immediate feedback is when we make mistakes and respond with humility.”
Chris Matakas is a Black Belt under Ricardo Almeida in New Jersey, an author of 12 books, a high performance coach, podcast host, and the owner of Matakas BJJ Academy.
He has graced us again with his presence in the podcast, and this time he talks about his new book “Jiu Jitsu and The Ego,” which is about controlling what seems to be uncontrollable to win moments and for people that matter. He also spoke of how one’s environment and wounds creates an individual, just like how Jiu Jitsu is a vehicle that shapes people to pay more attention to their ego and the way they respond to aggression.
Learn how to pacify our ego through Jiu Jitsu and be motivated to improve ourselves so that we can better serve our loved ones, community, and even ourselves.
